This helps forensic experts:

  • thoroughly verify the authenticity of documents and banknotes by examining their printing method and color specification, searching for alterations, etc.;

  • search for and record micro-objects, such as cloth fibers, blood stains, pieces of glass, unburnt gunpowder, and other evidence of a crime;

  • examine extra-large objects, such as safe burglary tool traces, that are impossible to inspect in a fixed-site lab.   

The Regula 5006 is empowered by Regula Forensic Studio, a professional software solution for obtaining and processing images of examined objects. Thanks to this integration, forensic experts can not only perform analysis with the Regula 5006, but also register and store the examination results in their local databases. Also, Regula Forensic Studio provides access to Regula’s Information Reference Systems (IRS), a detailed knowledge base with meticulously described document security features to refer to when verifying a document or banknote.
